Hello,
We have Squid version 3.1.19 running on our network and everything
works OK
but we have noticed that rules set up to allow and deny access tend
to be a
little slow.
So, if an application that we have set to be allowed on our network
runs it
takes a while for it to connect becaue Squid is processing a rule for
the
port for that application. Once Squid allows the application to
connect (via
the "CONNECT" method) then everything works fine but it takes a long
time
(30-60 seconds) for the rule allowing that application to connect to
apply.
What can I do to fix this?
Start with showing us the access configuration please.
So far all we can say is "well, you start with optimizing the order",
but can't point you at particular details. For example do you have
several million regex patterns being processed? or a slow DNA lookup?
Once the order is streamlined for minimal tests performed it is easier
to debug test and see where the remaining bottlenecks are.
